DAMWON Gaming, as expected, made a flying start to the day as the 2020 World Champions defeated LSB with a dominant display.

All-Star 2020's Superstar Showdown champion Cho "BeryL'' Geon-Hee was the highlight of the match. DWG's support player displayed his splendid skill with GalioNongshim RedForce and comfortably won the second match of the day. The new roster of Afreeca Freecs failed to leave a significant mark in League of Legends KeSPA 2020.

NS RedForce's bottom laner Seo "deokdam" Dae-Gil showed his class with Apehlios. The Weapon of the Faithful ripped apart five turrets within 20 seconds with her Crescendrum, Severum, and Calibrum.

DRX, who were semifinalists from last year's League of Legends KeSPA Cup faced a disappointing group-stage exit with just 1 point on their score sheet. They lost both their games against LSB and DWG despite having a good start.

All eyes will now be on Day Four of the League of Legends KeSPA Cup. The other five teams will be ready for their final Group B clash.
